Hu Le is a seasoned veteran with extensive combat experience; how could he be so easily ambushed?
Just as the serpent shot towards him, he gently raised his bamboo staff, and with lightning speed, struck the serpent's head accurately.
With a soft "snap," the serpent trembled violently, its lightning-fast movements momentarily halting.
It seemed somewhat dazed after being hit.
The next instant, the spirit snake seemed to regain its senses and also sensed the danger. Its body trembled violently, and it retreated towards the lotus at an astonishing speed.
Only now did Hu Le finally see the true nature of this serpent.
This serpent was about three feet long and as thick as an adult's thumb. Its body was covered with a layer of purple and gold scales that shimmered with a mesmerizing luster, just like a fine piece of jade.
Its eyes gleamed with a ferocious, cold light, icy and ruthless, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
Hu Le had sharp eyes and immediately recognized that this snake must be a primordial demon born from that precious lotus.
Having received such good fortune, if it can cultivate successfully and transform into human form in the future, it will surely become a powerful being.
However, at this moment, it was unlucky and, before it could gain any real power, it encountered Hu Le.
Of course, if it hadn't attacked Hu Le first, but instead immediately abandoned Bao Lian and retreated obediently upon seeing Hu Le, perhaps Hu Le wouldn't have done anything to it.
Unfortunately, it chose to ambush Hu Le, an act that thoroughly angered Hu Le and also sealed its own fate.
The serpent moved with lightning speed, about to burrow into the lotus core in the blink of an eye.
Without hesitation, Hu Le gently swung his bamboo staff, and a purple light blade shot out from it.
A flash of light, and it instantly caught up with the spirit snake, slicing it in two.
The serpent let out a mournful cry.
However, it was not an ordinary creature after all. Although its body was cut in two, it was not completely dead.
With a flash of mysterious light, the two broken snake bodies swayed slightly and in the blink of an eye transformed into two brand new and vibrant spirit snakes.
Hu Le remained unmoved by the situation.
No matter how the serpent changed or how tenacious its vitality was, it did not surprise him.
He gently waved the bamboo staff in his hand, and a purple light burst forth from the staff.
The purple light, like a nimble purple dragon, swiftly coiled towards the two spirit snakes.
After the spirit snakes fell into the purple aura, they struggled desperately, but to no avail; they were unable to break free from the binding force.
The purple aura tightly enveloped them, constantly washing and grinding them.
In just over ten breaths, the two spirit snakes were completely obliterated, merging with the Primordial Purple Qi and transforming into two dense clouds of purple energy.
Hu Le gently swayed the bamboo cane in his hand, and with his movement, the primordial purple aura that had been lingering in mid-air gradually dissipated.
His gaze fell on the lotus flower again, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
Hu Le slowly circled the lotus flower, carefully observing every detail.
His divine senses gently caressed the lotus like a spring breeze, carefully exploring its mysteries.
After careful observation and exploration, Hu Le finally discovered that the lotus flower was not yet fully mature and it was not the best time to pick it.
He knew that if he forcibly took this precious lotus now, it would be a waste of this rare treasure of heaven and earth, and would cause the lotus to lose many of its mysteries.
Hu Le is not lacking in spiritual treasures; he values quality and opportunity more.
Therefore, he decided to temporarily give up picking the precious lotus and wait for the moment when it was truly ripe.
Without hesitation, Hu Le moved his hands swiftly, and streams of Dao runes flew from his fingertips, like fluttering butterflies, swirling and dancing around the precious lotus.
With a gentle tap of his finger, the runes exploded instantly, transforming into wisps of white smoke, like a mysterious veil, tightly enveloping the precious lotus.
In the blink of an eye, Hu Le conjured up an illusion array, cleverly concealing the precious lotus flower.
This illusion array not only conceals Baolian's aura but also prevents others from noticing her presence once they get close.
He thought to himself, "When this precious lotus reaches its full potential, that will be the day I come to pluck it."
Hu Le believes that only at the most opportune time can the most perfect results be achieved.
He stood quietly in place, gazing at Baolian, who was hidden by the illusion array, his heart filled with anticipation.
The illusion array gradually merged into the surrounding purple aura, as if it had become one with the entire space.
He gripped the bamboo cane tightly in his hand and raised his eyes to look ahead.
At this moment, he had only one goal in mind—to find the primordial Great Dao Child.
This matter was of paramount importance to him, as it concerned whether he could achieve the Great Dao in the future, so he dared not be distracted in the slightest.
In this boundless primordial energy, he must remain focused and vigilant, not letting go of any clue.
Afterwards, Hu Le embarked on his journey once again, continuing to traverse this boundless primordial energy.
He was extremely fast, but this primordial energy seemed boundless, and no matter how far he went, he could not reach its end.
However, deep down, he could sense a subtle connection, as if the chosen one he was searching for was nearby.
But whenever he tried to get closer, the feeling would disappear, leaving him utterly confused.
He realized that the Child of the Great Dao seemed to have sensed his presence and was deliberately avoiding him, unwilling to meet him.
This put Hu Le in a difficult position, but he was not discouraged.
Hu Le realized that if the other party was determined to hide and avoid him, and he continued to search aimlessly, he might search forever and still not be able to catch the person's trail.
His mind raced for a moment, then he stopped and began to calculate. Suddenly, he realized that this was the place where primordial energy was rising, and the mysteries of the Great Dao here were extremely chaotic.
Moreover, the other party is born with the ability to conceal secrets.
He calculated for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, and finally had to give up the idea.
He pondered for a while longer, then tried to summon the Primordial Bell.
He suppressed the primordial spirit imprint he left inside the treasure to a minimum, quickly allowing the innate spirituality of the Primordial Bell to take over.
Just as his primordial spirit imprint was suppressed by the innate spirituality of the Primordial Bell, the Primordial Bell suddenly trembled, its entire body radiating countless divine lights. A melodious bell chime rang out, then spread throughout the entire Primordial Chaos, reaching endless distances.
And the next moment.
As if sensing something, the Primordial Bell spun in mid-air, enveloped in a ball of seven-colored light, and shot towards the depths of the Primordial Qi.
Upon seeing this, Hu Le quickly transformed into a streak of purple light and gave chase.
